I wasn't going to go into how I got my nickname out of modesty but you guys won't seem to leave me alone about it. Thus...
As most (none) of you know, I'm a writer, responsible for such seminal works as "My Argument is Clearly Sound and Yours is Baseless and Inane as you Just Demonstrated in Your Last Sentence, Thus Anything More That You Say On The Subject is Invalid" and, "ME: 200 Annotated Essays On Why I'm More Intelligent, More Eloquent, More Charming And More Correct Than You". I've maintained several businesses over the years. They were really simply hobbies that became more involving than I'd expected. So I sold them and bought some Corvettes. Anyway, my publisher, (who happens to be a Greco-Cuban supermodel) read about me, and after reviewing my body of work she told me that I was the "Omega of Literature." Personally I preferred Nth Man, but Omega stuck. As time wore on and more supermodels became enamored of me, I made my bid as a Hollywood writer. I was discovered by controversial film producer Irving McClintock. I sold my script for the original film Platoon to him, but we had a falling out when I punched him in a resturant so hard that his face caved in and his nervous system fell out. French people. Whaddaya gonna do? This maneuver of punching a man's nervous system out became known as "Omega's Wrath" and since I'm the only one with the ability and social awareness to make the thousands of calculations per second required to perform the move, my legend came to preceed me. Now I am simply known AS the maneuver. Give someone a solid Omegawrath right to the nervous system. It might not come out, but they'll know they were in a fight! Or maybe it was a name that came from a goofy fanfic about Megatron when I was a kid. Anyway,

Mine is from Super Mario Kart on SNES. There are some floating stone heads that fall down on the track and smoosh you as you drive by. The drummer in the band I was in, could never get by them and began cursing them out (%$&*#ing facehammers!)
And when signing up for my first free email account, I couldn't seem to find a name that was more appropriate for me, but facehammer was available... So there it was. Boy, that was a long time ago now. And the avatar is King Atlas from the Micronauts... |

Well when i first got back into Joes i was totally lost on the Internet since all i ever used the PC for was online gaming and eBay . I honestly didn't know what to expect and didn't spend any time as a guest on the boards so i came up with Old Joe thinking that it was going to be a young peps world and might as well represent my senile and decrepit age of 33 at the time . I find it amazing the diffrent ages on this and other sites .

However if the other Flint on this board gets removed I'd love to remove my x's. I use Primetime on Action Figure Insider but that's because it's my nickname when I broadcast Pro Wrestllin ( www.ecpwshowcase.com) [/cheap plug] and you can't change your name over there. |

Mine was from a nickname I was given in the Army. At that time I was skinniest guy in my platoon, so everyone called me "slim". The 1972 is my birth year, . I signed up on a forum a long time ago and "slim" & "slim1972" was taken, so I just added the extra "2".

long story.
well,.. in the last 10 years I have been Shot, stabbed, hit by a truck, thrownout of a plane, shattered my hand, had a screw drilled into my ankle, contracted Diabetes, had acid reflux that develoed into an ulcer, had pnumonia, had a stroke, lost a child, lost my job, lost my home, and lost my mind. ...and came back from all that. someone said that I have been through a lot of pain, and mastered it. I have mastered my pain, so I call myself king of pain....plus I am a six foot one, 300 pound, black samurai bodyguard who likes the Police. ...the 26 came from I was the 26th person to choose that name on Hotmail.
